Life & Liberty - 1,060 words
Life and Liberty "A bill of rights are what the
people are entitled to against every government,
and what no just government should refuse."
-Thomas Jefferson 1781 "There has been no abuse of
rights, and sometimes we must weigh rights against
responsibilities." -Attorney General John Ashcroft
2004 Since our founding fathers first drafted a
constitution, America's core values have been
life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness;
without interference from the government. For the
better part of two hundred years, Americans have
focused on developing a fair and free democracy,
in which everyone has an equal say and as many
individual rights and freedoms as are possible in
an effective society. ...

Locke - 372 words
Property cannot be made secure by natural right
alone, andfor the better securing of their
properties men have entered intocivil society. The
will of the body politic, when formed,
isdetermined by the will of the majority, and of a
bare majority ifthere be no different express
agreement. For this Locke does notgive any reason
but the necessity of the case; it is certain
thatmuch worse ones have been given. As a matter
of fact, we now knowthat a majority vote has not
been generally recognized in archaicsocieties; the
difficulty of obtaining nominal unanimity
wasovercome (as in special cases it still has to
be) by variousmethods, including varying elements
of force and fiction. Thisdoes not ap ...

List For Lust - 658 words
'A List of Lust' 'They turn casually to look at
you, distracted, and get a mild distracted
surprise, you're gone. Their blank look tells you
that the girl they were fucking is not there
anymore. You seem to have disappeared.(pg.263)' In
Minot's story Lust you are play by play given the
sequential events of a fifteen year old girls sex
life. As portrayed by her thoughts after sex in
this passage the girl is overly casual about the
act of sex and years ahead of her time in her
awareness of her actions. Minot's unique way of
revealing to the reader the wild excursions done
by this young promiscuous adolescent proves that
she devalues the sacred act of sex. Furthermore,
the manner in which the a ...

Key points in the Chapter: - Dead solider attached
to the parachute is labels "The Beast". This is
also ironic becauseRalph prays for help from
adults but the adult that arrives is dead.- The
kids see Ralph now as more of an adult figure. He

him.-Power struggle between Jack and Ralph. Ralph

Lord Of The Ris - 266 words
In Lord of the Flies clothing symbolizes order,
rules and democracy. As the boy's clothing turns
to rags, their rules are discarded and their
system of democracy is overthrown. When the boys
first arrive on the island they realize that there
are no adults to tell them what to do or how to
behave. When the boys realized that there are no
adults with them, they removed their clothes to go

Luciano - 1,661 words
No other New York gangster in the twentieth
century matched the capabilities of the sinister,
crafty, powerful, and secretive Charles "Lucky"
Luciano. Who with the help of his closest friends
and allies, even enemies, established the National
Crime Syndicate in the early 1930s, which still
remains today (Nash 251). Lucky Luciano, the
"true" American gangster, rewrote the rules of the
Italian Mafia, under control of old-line Sicilian
rule, and created an organization open to all
ethnic backgrounds (Dewey). He worked his way from
being a struggling messenger for a small gang, to
eventually becoming the "Capo di Tutti Capi"(the
Boss of All Bosses), the highest ranking in the
Mafia (Dewey). Duri ...

Lit Review - 763 words
Roughly 217,440 new cases of invasive breast
cancer will be diagnosed in 2004, resulting in
nearly 40,580 deaths (3). Those newly diagnosed
with breast cancer often have the choice of
several different treatments. The treatments
include chemotherapy and radiation. Fatigue
related from cancer is defined as "a persistent,
subjective sense of tiredness related to cancer or
cancer treatment that interferes with usual
functioning" (1). This helps contribute to
physical inactivity in these patients, leading to
deconditioning and decreased functional capacity
(1). Physical inactivity and an increase in rest
have generally been recommended for cancer
patients (1). However, recent research has shown ...

Lord Of The Flies: The Two Political Forces - 330 words
In "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding, a group
of kids crash lands on an uninhabited island. As
the time passes, two rival groups emerge, each
having a leader with his own view on how to
lead.Ralph's rule was democratic. He believed that
order could be achieved by peaceful negotiations
and reasoning. He got the kids to elect him as a
chief rather than enforcing his own rule. He
attempted to achieve order by performing peaceful
talks during his assemblies. For discipline, he
relied on his conch: only the person who held it
was allowed to speak. He did not force his people
to follow the rules, nor did he punish them when a
rule got broken.Jack's rule, in contrast, was
dictatorial. He belie ...

Learning Behavior - 715 words
Learning Behavior Psychologists have preformed
many studies and proposed many theories regarding
learning. Learning can be defined as a relatively
permanent change in behavior that is due to past
experience. John B. Watson was an early
psychologist that didn't agree with many other
psychologist's ideas about learning only relating
to consciousness and thought processes. As the
founder of behaviorism, Watson studied learning in
a behavioral perspective, an approach that
emphasizes the relationship between outwardly
observable behaviors and environmental events,
rather than mental processes. Classical
conditioning is a process of learning associations
between stimuli used by Ivan Pavlov, a Rus ...

Love Conquers All - 1,048 words
Virgil said, "Love conquers all things, let us too
surrender to love". Most people have experienced
the overwhelming feeling of love, thereby
understanding that in the end, nothing will stand
in its way. Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter,
Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, Yzierska's Bread
Givers, and Hurston's Their Eyes were Watching
God, and dorm life show that love truly conquers
all obstacles. In The Scarlet Letter, love
conquers the pressures of society, while in The
Great Gatsby, love overcomes the test of time. In
Bread Givers, love triumphs over major differences
caused by a wide generation gap and in Their Eyes
were Watching God, love overpowers the forces of
nature and disease. In The Sc ...

Transplantation of organs between animals and
humans is called xenotransplantation. Pig liver

Liver cells, eyes cells and bone cells may one day

Life In The 90s - 1,543 words
Throughout the 1990's there was a lot of good and
bad times. Starting with the good things, I will
begin my paper with 5 of the up-most important
events in this period of time and then conclude
with 4 of the down sides. Early in the 90's was
Desert Storm, which was a huge success. The 1991
bombing of Baghdad was a demonstration of smart,
powerful weapons,planning ahead and military
superiority. Having control in the air was a major
goal ofthose who had planned out the attack.
Starting attacks on the capital was the major
ideaand political goal of destabilizing Saddam
Hussein's regime (basically the main purposehere
was to have Iraq's leader murdered). About 244
laser-guided bombs and 88 crui ...

maximum effort by the faithful to draw down the
heavenly host and bring in the City of God. To
that end Howell accumulated arms for his
followers, possibly even beyond the generous norms
of gun ownership in Texas or the needs of the gun
trade. He was stimulated in that endeavor by a
curious and seemingly unrelated event, described
in the chronology of a postmortem report by the
U.S. Treasury Department as follows: March 5-9,
1992 - Local law enforcement conduct SWAT training

Life Is Precious - 1,306 words
Life Is Precious It has been argued that it should
be made legal for patients to have doctor-assisted
suicide, or mercy-killing, which is the term used
to describe ending life through the voluntary
self-administration of lethal medication,
expressly prescribed by a physician for that
purpose (DHS-Internet). By approximately a
two-to-one ratio, most adults in the US agree that
it should be this way. "When read a brief
description of the Oregon proposition, allowing
physician-assisted suicide for patients who are
thought to have less than six months to live, a
61% to 34% majority said that they would favor
such a law in their state"(Harris # 2). However, I
myself feel, that it shouldn't be app ...

Layout Design - 756 words
Deciding LayoutsDeciding the layout is a very
important step in Java GUI programming, just like
solving an algorithm in normal programming. Layout
decides how the components like labels, buttons,
text fields etc are going to be displayed on a
frame or window. Some GUI can be designed using
single panel with a single simple layout. Some GUI
need to be broken down into smaller panels which
have to be added to an outer panel. Each smaller
panel can have its own layout.The simplest layout
is the flow layout. Flow layout produces output as
a single row. So go for flow layout if you have
only 3 or lesser components or if you want all the
components in a single row.Next is grid layout. As
long as y ...

Labeling Theory - 575 words
The Labeling Theory is the view that labels people
are given affect their own and others' perception
of them, thus channeling their behavior either
into deviance or into conformity. Labels can be
positive and/or negative, but I'll focus on the
negative aspects of labeling in high school.
Everybody has a label in high school whether it is
the "slut", "pothead", "freak" or the "jock"; it
is one of the most apparent time periods in which
individuals get labeled. Students have the
mentality that whatever label is placed on them is
going to be stuck with them forever, which then
leads into a self-fulfilling prophecy. This, I
feel, is a fear of being a "loser" that has been
instilled throughout ye ...
